Sick

Well, I've gotten sick in Switzerland. Last night I got what Ben and Daniel had gotten Tuesday. I'm nauseous, was throwing up all night and missed class today. It was only a matter of time I know, but I was definitely hoping I'd make it more than a week. :(

It's pretty crazy, I don't remember the last time I was this type of sick. It must be a 24-hour stomach flu but it's pretty horrible. And it's not helping with my jetlag which is still making me somewhat miserable as well. I didn't sleep through the night, and I kept throwing up... what's next?!?

My family is being really kind though. They had me sleep in this morning and try to feel better (it's sort of working). But it's weird being in the house by myself.

My daily chores are pretty straightforward: make beds, tidy the kitchen, bathrooms, kids' rooms, etc., vacuum the floors, do the laundry (which I'm still not quite sure how to do - they have some high-tech machinery around here) and maintain the general appearance of the house.

I got a phone yesterday too, for emergencies & such which is nice. I sort of feel like a business person though, since I still have my iPhone and carrying around two is a little obnoxious. I really hope I get over this flu thing asap because it's really draining me.

Anyway, I'm going to try & take a little nap and then finish my jobs around the house. Just thought I'd share a little update. This weekend we're going to the mountains with some friends of the family and will go "sledging" with the kids. I'm looking forward to it, as long as my stomach cooperates.

Missing & Loving you all. Will keep you updated as I can. <3
